Steps We Follow to Fight Domestic Violence False Accusations?
Making false allegations of domestic violence is a new tactical weapon many women or men use because once the accusations are made, the defendant is typically presumed guilty. As a matter of fact once you have been accused of this violent behavior it is your burden to prove your innocence while also dismantling the credibility of the accuser’s claim. Here are some helpful tips and steps that you can take to counter these false accusations.
Step 1: Obtain an Experienced Attorney to Protect Your Rights
Before the accused does anything else, he or she needs to hire an attorney. The case in proving innocence is a difficult one, and the sooner you starts the legal defense, the greater chances are to succeed.
At KN Law Firm we will act first on proving that those broken bones, for example, are not from violence the accused caused. The legal team at our law firm will need the medical evidence from the victim as well to dispute the times or locations of where the harm happened. It is crucial to refute through various means the violent attacks are due to the defendant.
Step 2: Abide by all the Terms and Conditions of Restraining Order
If there is a restraining order against you, be sure to strictly abide by all the terms and conditions. The accusing party will most likely try to get you to break it and cause you to be in violation so you face further legal repercussions. If the other party ever contacts you claiming that they “need” to see you, then keep a written log of all their attempts. This will prove to the court that the accuser doesn’t believe that they are in any real danger. At the same time DO NOT respond to, or meet with the accuser.
STEP 3: Remain Persistent and Stay your Ground
If you are innocent be sure to remain persistent and stay your ground. It is also best to keep yourself cool and remain calm and professional throughout the case. Try not to get angry because the other party will be looking and anticipating that reaction. Remember that the accuser is in fact breaking the law. Making false allegations in court can be perceived as perjury and if you prove your innocence they could face legal implications.
Step 4: Providing Evidence and Calling Witnesses
Once you hired an attorney and KN Law Firm APLC part of the picture, you will need to perform damage control. You need to mitigate the harm that the other party causes through the charges and trial that will proceed once enough evidence is sufficient for a court case.
